Obsessed! If you love design, type, & history read this.

Starting 10 days out of office with an empty work email, freelance email, personal email, and Slack.

What do I do with my hands?

Portfolio needed some updating, and some simplifying. Added a splash of motion, and done.

Feels good to go simple!

If, in theory, I was working on a Chrome extension for Webflow quality of life upgrades, what would you like to see?

New site build with Whiteboard!

Great design from the team, and got to take advantage of all the new Webflow goodies - component variations, slots, and page building, all launched just in time for this build.

Can confirm this is the greatest thing ever
Component style variants in Webflow is here!

Variants help ensure design consistency –as they inherit any change to the base. This is quite powerful and variants work as props including nested components.

How do you plan on using component style variants?

Component style variants is now available | Webflow Updates
Designers can now define multiple style options for a single component –like a Button with solid and outline styles, or a Card with horizontal and vertical variants.
